I don't think that Chase Carey would take as much issue with it as Bernie, but having both open-wheel races that close together just seems odd.

I wonder if the series wants two off weekends going into Mexico City, and thus consider the early-season break just a bit too short. (I don't know, but it could be possible; it's probably more involved crossing the border to and from Mexico than it is with Canada.)
Surely they would race on the full circuit and not on the oval, though that would be interesting to see?

If the race were at the beginning of the season, it won't be near or clash with the F1 GP. Hopefully Chase Carey isn't like Bernie...
